TikTok Ads
On TikTok, an ad that looks like an ad is ignored.
The platform rewards content that belongs there, which is a genuine constraint on what can be advertised well.
TikTok Ads management covers in-feed video campaigns and Spark Ads. The work is mostly creative: producing video that reads as native to the platform rather than as a repurposed television commercial, and testing it fast enough to keep up with how quickly performance decays.

02 · Detail
Where TikTok fits, and where it does not.
TikTok works for visual products, impulse purchases and anything with a demonstrable before and after. It works poorly for complex B2B services and high-consideration purchases where the buyer needs to compare options carefully. We will tell you which side of that line you are on before taking the budget.
Creative decay is faster here than anywhere else. A video that works can be exhausted in weeks rather than months, so a TikTok account needs a production rhythm, not a launch. That is a real cost to plan for, and it is why creative production is usually part of the same engagement.
Spark Ads, which promote existing organic posts, often outperform purpose-built ads because they carry real engagement signals. If you have organic content that performed, that is the first place to put budget.
03 · How it works
How we approach it.
- 01
Fit check
Whether your product suits the format at all. Sometimes the honest answer is no.
- 02
Native creative
Video shot for the platform, not adapted from a television edit.
- 03
Fast testing
Many angles, short cycles, quick decisions on what to keep.
- 04
Spark Ads
Promoting organic posts that already earned engagement.
- 05
Sales measurement
Tied to real orders, because view counts here are flattering and unreliable as a business metric.
04 · Fit
Who TikTok Ads is for.
TikTok fits visual products, impulse purchases, anything with a demonstrable before and after, and brands whose customers discover rather than search. It rewards content that belongs on the platform and punishes anything that looks like an advert, which is a genuine constraint on what can be promoted well.
It fits businesses with the capacity to produce video continuously. Creative decays faster here than anywhere else, so an account needs a production rhythm rather than a launch. Spark Ads, which promote organic posts that already performed, are often the best starting point.
It is a poor fit for complex B2B services, high-consideration purchases and businesses that want to reuse television or Instagram edits. We say which side of that line a product is on before taking the budget, because the honest answer is sometimes that TikTok is the wrong channel.
05 · Common mistakes
The mistakes we correct first.
- Polished ads in a native feed. Production value reads as advertising and gets scrolled past. Native-looking video with clear audio performs better.
- One video for a month. Fatigue arrives in weeks. Without new angles the cost per result climbs steadily.
- Reposting content from other platforms. Watermarked or visibly repurposed video is deprioritised by the algorithm and ignored by viewers.
- Measuring by views. View counts are flattering and unreliable as a business metric. Orders and qualified leads are the measure.
- Ignoring organic. Organic posts that performed carry real engagement signals and usually outperform purpose-built ads when promoted.
TikTok is unforgiving of shortcuts, which is why we treat creative production as part of the media engagement rather than a separate deliverable.
06 · Measurement
How we measure and report.
We report cost per order or per qualified lead, with platform attribution shown against store or CRM data. Creative is reported by angle and by age, so fatigue is visible before it becomes a problem.
Spark Ads and purpose-built ads are reported separately, because they usually behave differently and the comparison tells you where production budget should go next.
